You run. But why?

Whenever you ask a runner this, you’re bound to get into a long conversation. Runners love talking about running.

And in our second Run | Talk episode, we’re lucky to have spoken to Glenn Southam, Community Leader at Run Social, a platform for socialising, networking and exercising.

Run clubs and more

Glenn might describe himself as an ‘average runner’, but our conversation shows he’s so much more than that. He’s certainly very eloquent in describing how running acts as his regular outdoor therapy.

After a very chilly run together, we explore how personal tragedy led to a life-altering London Marathon experience in 2013 and a now entrenched relationship with running, as well as the recent explosion in run club culture.

This is the second in the series and we plan further episodes with runners to explore their story and their motivation for running. Watch this space.
